Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
1. A wireless communication system for performing wireless communication, comprising: base stations each including a measurer that measures an uplink quality representing a quality of uplink data, and a transmission decision unit that compares the measured uplink quality with a reference value to determine whether to accept or reject transmission of the uplink data, and transmits a signal in accordance with a comparison result; and a terminal including a signal receiver that receives the signals from the base stations with which the terminal is connected by diversity handover, and a controller that transmits the uplink data if all of the signals from the base stations indicate acceptance of transmissions of uplink data and does not transmit the uplink data if any one of the signals from the base stations indicate rejection of transmission of the uplink data.
2. The wireless communication system according to claim 1 , wherein the measurer measures an interference amount as the uplink quality, and when the measured interference amount is smaller than the reference value, the transmission decision unit accepts the transmission of the uplink data.
3. The wireless communication system according to claim 1 , wherein the measurer measures a data amount as the uplink quality, and when the measured data amount is smaller than the reference value, the transmission decision unit accepts the transmission of the uplink data.
4. The wireless communication system according to claim 1 , wherein the transmission decision unit uses either a shared channel to notify all connected terminals of the signal, or dedicated channels to notify individual connected terminals of the signal.
5. A terminal for performing wireless communication, comprising: a signal receiver that receives signals from a plurality of base stations with which the terminal is connected by diversity handover, each of the signals being generated by a corresponding one of the base stations based on a result of comparison between a measured uplink quality representing a quality of uplink data and a reference value and indicative of acceptance or rejection of transmission of the uplink data; and a controller that transmits the uplink data if all of the signals from the base stations indicate acceptance of transmissions of uplink data and does not transmit the uplink data if any one of the signals from the base stations indicate rejection of transmission the uplink data.
6. A wireless communication system for performing wireless communication, comprising: base stations each including an estimator that estimates an uplink quality representing a quality of uplink data, and a transmission decision unit that determines whether to accept or reject transmission of the uplink data based on a result of estimation of the uplink quality and transmits a signal; and a terminal including a signal receiver that receives the signals from the base stations with which the terminal is connected by diversity handover, and a controller that transmits the uplink data if all of the signals from the base stations indicate acceptance of transmissions of uplink data and does not transmit the uplink data if any one of the signals from the base stations indicate rejection of transmission the uplink data.
7. The wireless communication system according to claim 6 , wherein the estimator estimates an interference amount as the uplink quality, and when a result of estimation of the interference amount satisfies a required quality, the transmission decision unit accepts the transmission of the uplink data.
8. The wireless communication system according to claim 6 , wherein the estimator estimates a data amount as the uplink quality, and when a result of estimation of the data amount satisfies a required quality, the transmission decision unit accepts the transmission of the uplink data.
9. The wireless communication system according to claim 6 , wherein the estimator estimates transmit power as the uplink quality, and when a result of estimation of the transmit power satisfies a required quality, the transmission decision unit accepts the transmission of the uplink data.
10. The wireless communication system according to claim 6 , wherein the transmission decision unit uses either a shared channel to notify all connected terminals of the signal, or dedicated channels to notify individual connected terminals of the signal.
